Shredding Year-End Documents

[jzukerman]

My local UPS Store partners with a local shredding company. You bring your paperwork in, you pay by weight, and put the paper into their secure/locked bin for shredding. I think it was $1.25/lbs. Not sure how many pages that equates to but seems like it would be a lot. At some point the shredding truck shows up and shreds everything inside the bin. This might be a good option for those occasional/yearly shredding jobs, can be written off as a business expense. My local transfer station (dump) has the same shredding company come onsite once or twice a year for free shredding too, probably for PR/marketing exposure.

I picked up a Fellows Micro Shredder at Costco for around 200 dollars on sale, been using it for 6 years already. 6 pages at a time, and a slot for DVDs

Basically turns the paper in to a powder.

Is the size of the tub also 'micro' or does that apply only to size of the output?

Well, when I dump it, it will fill a 5 gallon re-purposed empty paint bucket. I would say that's quite a bit.
